Description

The manufacture method of magnetic recording medium, recording medium and magnetic recording system
Cross reference to related application
The application is based on the Japanese patent application No.2004-090669 formerly that submits on March 25th, 2004, and requires its right of priority, quotes its full content as a reference at this.
Technical field
The present invention relates to the manufacture method and the magnetic recording system of magnetic recording medium, recording medium, more specifically, relate to the manufacture method of the magnetic recording medium with high record density, this recording medium and such as the magnetic recording systems such as hard disk drive that wherein are equipped with high-density recording medium.
Background technology
As the magnetic recording system that is used to write down with information reproduction, the application of hard disk drive (HDD) expands to various other applications such as home video machine and onboard navigation system from the initial application relevant with computing machine.Except having higher recording capacity and lower cost, the application of hard disk drive is expanded also because it has advantages such as higher data access speed, higher data memory reliability.Along with the expansion of HDD application, constantly increase for the demand of the HDD with bigger recording capacity.In order to satisfy this demand, developed the huge storage capacity recording technology by the recording density that increases magnetic recording medium.
Along with the increase of the recording density of the magnetic recording medium of HDD, the diameter of recorded bit size and reversal of magnetism unit becomes very little.As a result, the tracer signal magnetization and the record that are produced of the heat fluctuation effect that is caused by small size reversal of magnetism unit and the heat drop phenomenon of reproducing performance become fairly obvious.In addition, along with the size of recorded bit narrows down to very little size, it is big that the noise signal that the borderline region between the recorded bit occurs becomes, and noise becomes signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) is produced bigger influence.Therefore,, need the magnetized thermal stability of stable recording signal on the one hand, under higher recording density condition, obtain lower noisiness on the other hand in order to obtain higher recording density.
In order to reduce the magnetic recording medium noise, the size that constitutes the magnetic crystal grain of recording layer has become littler so far.For example, by adding a spot of Ta or B (referring to flat 11-154321 of Japanese Patent Application No. and 2003-338029), thereby and separate out nonmagnetic Cr (referring to the flat 3-235218 of Japanese Patent Application No. peace 6-259764) by under suitable temperature, heat-treating, the magnetospheric magnetic crystal grain of the Co-Cr of widely used magnetic recording medium is made very little size.Recently, be used for obtaining having the method for the magnetic recording layer of the so-called granular structure that obtains by the oxide that adds at magnetosphere such as SiOx.In the magnetosphere of this granular structure, non magnetic grain circle material surrounds magnetic crystal grain (referring to flat 10-92637 of Japanese Patent Application No. and 2001-56922).
But the nucleation stage of the crystal grain that these methods can not be by turning back to bed course and magnetic recording layer is controlled the crystal grain of magnetosphere and bed course.These methods are only by selecting raw-material combination, composition of raw material or by selecting deposition conditions to control average magnetic crystal grain diameter and grain battery limit (BL).When managing that the crystal grain diameter in the bed course is reduced to littler size, will reduce the crystalline quality and the degree of grain alignment of the crystal grain in the bed course, and the crystalline quality decline meeting of bed course crystal grain exerts an influence to the formation of magnetic crystal grain.
In fact, have been found that the magnetospheric crystallite dimension of preparation in this way and the distribution range broad of grain circle width.The magnetic recording medium that the average grain size of magnetic crystal grain is reduced to 5nm shows very poor heat fluctuation durability.Ratio for the crystal grain of the unsettled very small size of heat fluctuation diameter is very high.Therefore be difficult to obtain in this way higher recording density.
Summary of the invention
In order to obtain the magnetic recording medium of high record density, the record of the influence of fluctuations of need not being heated magnetization stability also obtains low-noise performance under the high record density condition.So, obtain higher recording density, need solve two problems.A problem that solves is by reducing the mean diameter of the magnetic crystal grain in the magnetosphere, to obtain low-noise performance.Another problem that solves is, the less grain size distribution of the magnetic crystal grain of the too little crystal grain by not comprised the influence of fluctuations of being heated easily obtains thermal stability.
As the result of the long-term exploration work of carrying out for the solution that obtains these problems, the present inventor has important discovery.This discovery is, when bed course is that the size of made magnetospheric magnetic crystal grain can be very little, and grain size distribution is very narrow when having the Cu metal film of thin illuvium of nitrogen-atoms.After further studying, the inventor has solved the problems referred to above and has finished the present invention.
Magnetic recording medium of the present invention comprises: substrate, the magnetic recording layer on the bed course that forms on the substrate, bed course and the protective seam that forms on magnetic recording layer.Bed course comprises the illuvium of crystal grain diameter control bed course that contains Cu crystal grain and the nitrogen-atoms that forms on crystal grain diameter control bed course.
The manufacture method of magnetic recording medium of the present invention may further comprise the steps: form the crystal grain diameter control bed course that contains Cu crystal grain on substrate, at the illuvium of the nitrogen-atoms that forms deposit nitrogen on the crystal grain diameter control mat surface with have on the substrate of the nitrogen layer of deposit on the crystal grain diameter control bed course and form magnetic recording layer.
And magnetic recording of the present invention and transcriber comprise: above-mentioned magnetic recording medium, be used to drive magnetic recording medium the recording medium driving mechanism, be used to record information on the magnetic recording medium and from the magnetic recording medium information reproduction record and reproducing head mechanism, be used for the magnetic head driving mechanism of activation record and reproducing head and be used to handle the record and the reproducing signal disposal system of tracer signal and reproducing signal.
In the present invention, the crystallite dimension of bed course crystal grain Cu does not need very little.Therefore can avoid using little crystallite dimension bed course to obtain the problem that is run in the existing method of little magnetic crystal grain, like this, can obtain having the recording medium of improved record and reproducing characteristic according to the present invention.The crystal grain diameter control bed course of the Cu of comprising crystal grain of the present invention can comprise other element that can bring into play advantage of the present invention.
At present, not clear by using nitrogen deposit Cu metal film bed course to obtain the detailed mechanism of small-size grains.Here, will introduce two pieces of articles, and the present invention and these two pieces of articles will simply be compared.
In the one piece of article that in Surface Science (Surface Science) the 523rd volume 189-198 page or leaf (2003), occurs, reported by surface structure with alternate configurations that zone that nitrogen adsorbs and the zone that does not have absorption constitute.10 -9Under the ultravacuum of Pa after the purified treatment, attached nitrogen atom on bulky single crystal Cu surface.
Roll up in another piece article that occurs in the 169-177 page or leaf (2002) at Materials Science and Engineering (Material Science and Engineering) B96, the orderly arrangement of the lip-deep nitrogen-atoms of monocrystalline Cu is explained.Be interpreted as because the self-organizing structures that the stress interaction that occurs on the clean surface of bulk Cu monocrystalline produces arranging in order.
